Step by step description : 1. From the "Le Sappey Église" post, take the road towards "La Charmette" to reach the "Croix du Rocher". 2. Turn left towards Les Combes. After 600 m, take a track towards "Les Allières"; it follows the bottom of the combe, then climbs along a torrent to reach a crossroads at the "Les Allières" post. 3. Follow the track to the right as far as L'Émeindras de dessous, then L'Émeindras de dessus. As you approach the mountain pastures, cross the fence and climb up the grassy path on sight, gaining a foothold on the meadows (panoramic view of Chamechaude, the Chartreuse and Vercors peaks). 4. At the Émeindras de dessus, follow the GR® 9 to the left towards the habert de Chamechaude. Shortly after the Col de l'Émeindras, the path continues up a steep, tightly-braced climb for 300 m, then along a balcony path, before descending to the habert de Chamechaude (breathtaking view of the Chamechaude cliffs). 5. Descend towards La Charmette, avoiding the forestry tracks, passing through Pied de Velouse to Montjalat le Haut. You can return to the starting point by following the GR® 9 straight on. 6. Leave the GR® 9 and turn right towards Col de Palaquit. After 400 m of steep ascent, reach a balcony path. Continue in the direction of Col de Palaquit to reach Le Réservoir. 7. Follow the GR® de Pays for 300 m in the direction of "Le Sappey Église". Leave it and follow the path on the left just before the main road. Take the Chemin des Crêts. Cross the D 512. 8. Take the impasse du Mollard on the right, then after 300 m, turn left on the GR® de Pays to reach the calvaire des Beauches (view of the Sagnes marshes). 9. Turn left towards Le Sappey. At the intersection with the D 512, turn right to reach the starting point.
